On April 24, Beijing time, after the Brooklyn Nets returned to their home stadium, they still failed to stop their playoff losing streak. The Nets, who lost 3-0, are just one game away from stopping in the first round. After the game, some Nets fans who lost control of their emotions directly threw the jersey of former Nets player James Harden into the fire pit.
The Nets sent James Harden before the deadline in the middle of the season, and although the latter asked for a trade, it was entirely avoidable for the Nets management.
In addition, Harden left the Nets, mainly because his teammate Kyrie Irving refused to vaccinate, at that time, he could not participate in the home game, which was a stumbling block for Harden, who was aiming for the championship. So he put forward his idea of leaving the team, which is completely understandable, but since the management is so obedient to Harden, it must bear all the consequences of today.
Finally, let's take a look at the players that the Nets have exchanged, they sent Harden in exchange for the biggest chip - Ben Simmons, not only did not help the team in times of danger, but now whether they can return this season is also a mystery. Even if Simmons comes back and plays with an injured back, can he be counted on to be the savior of the Nets series?
Together with Seth Curry and Drummond, the two didn't play much of a role in the series against the Celtics, which is why the 76ers management immediately finalized after the Nets agreed to send Harden willing to accept the offer at the time. Because the clear-eyed people understand that none of these chips sent by the 76ers will affect their great cause of winning the championship, but Harden can add bricks and tiles to assist Embiid.
In the end, Nets fans blame Harden for the team's indisputable performance and burn Harden's "No. 13 jersey", so it is better to think about it, is this mess caused by Harden himself or by others?
